Hi,

Compatable - Yes

I would change the memory as that speed will not be optimal for Ryzen.

If you can find £30 more ;

Or if you are pushing your limit then, just £10 more than the 2400MHz

Though the heatspreaders might get in the way of your cooler

I'm assuming the 3200mhz version of the same one I originally chose would suffice if the budget won't stretch much more?

What will this be used for? It's all compatible but I'd make a couple of changes

It would be used for casual gaming, a wide variety of games from LoL, Fallout, GW2 etc and also as a work computer when working from home.
